Barn building complete + the finishing touch
So my mom raises charolais cattle – pretty white cows with pink noses and has for a while now. As if she doesn’t have enough to do. If you can today – call your Mom and tell her that you know how amazing she is.
Now where was I?
A while back our clan built a barn on their property for these cows and it’s completed now. We still had one finishing touch to add and that was something Ryan and I worked on.
There is a beloved member of Mom’s charolais cattle and her name is Shiloh. She is both matriarch and pet (she finds time to be both in her busy schedule) and was the inspiration for a quilt/plaque that Ryan designed, I painted and he built. We knew it would be the keystone of the barn and a signal to my mom’s love of what she does.
After we finished creating the quilt/plaque, we took it to share with Shiloh, …. you know… to get her approval.
I promise that we’re safe. Seeing Ryan atop all of those pallets would make your heart stop if you didn’t know Ryan. He wrapped up the project by hanging the quilt above the barn door exterior.
We love it! Mom loves it, and Shiloh – while seemingly underwhelmed – appears to be a fan too. She celebrates her 12th birthday on March 9th. Happy Birthday, OG (that stands for old gal!!)

We love family portraits whether they are set in the studio, the great outdoors, a specific location like the mountains or high country, or on our property in our outdoor portrait garden. Pixels on Paper photographs newborns and families, special events and portraits of all kinds in our Wilkesboro, NC studio. We would be honored to meet with you, learn about you and your family and be a part of taking special portraits that will become, we hope, family heirlooms.

MBI Builders – Lake Norman State Park Architectural Photos
There are seasonal campers, hard core orienteering types who are climbing rocks and frozen waterfalls, glampers who want to get out while being conveniently IN, and those who wouldn’t be caught dead in the woods. Most of us just want to get away and, with the spring and summer coming, there are places to retreat that look quite appealing no matter your stripes.
Introducing the upgraded amenities at Lake Norman State Park! Ryan was recently asked to shoot pro images for MBI Builders of this project of theirs. As usual, MBI delivered beautiful work for their clients with solid wood beam construction, and an eye to the end users.
Some details about the project, include:
- These are new cabins in the Family Camp Circle section of the park.
- MBI built around half a dozen 2-room cabins around the site. Each have heat and A/C as well as power and water hookups for RVs.
- These also feature a pad for parking, a picnic table and fire ring.
- MBI also built a large bath house that is a shared facility for all campers, as well as both men’s and women’s sides with restrooms and showers. All are handicap accessible. There is also a family restroom facility with the same amenities.
- There are additional tent sites or car camp sites around for those who prefer to be closer to Mother Earth.
We love commercial projects and have worked with MBI Builders for years. If you would like to know more about Lake Norman State Park’s new upgrades, check out this link.

Pixels On Paper Photographs MBI Builder’s Custom Home
Ryan took the lead on this shoot as these are definitely in his wheelhouse. MBI Builders has engaged Pixels for commercial architectural photography before and we love that they want to have us capture images for their portfolio and website. They do beautiful work, so we try to represent that. The proof is in the pudding.
This is a custom design build home at the Blue Ridge Mountain Club. The views, the architectural details and materials speak for themselves.

Architectural, Real Estate and Interior Design Photography
As commercial photographers, we love the opportunity to capture architectural images for builders and interior designers who want to showcase their work. Part of doing that is getting the various choices they make in terms of shape, space, materials and form. An indoor pool is just an indoor pool until you get it from the perspective of the person who has just decided to open it up for use. Then the room is about potential….. and memories.
We love so many things about shooting these types of photographs – and Ryan is masterful at it, by the way. More than anything it is seeing textures in materials, a palette come together, fixtures and lighting that give a room a sense of place and a feeling of home or comfort or luxury.
Interiors and exteriors from MBI Builders are particularly wonderful to shoot because they create such beautiful custom homes and commercial spaces. Every fixture is especially chosen. We’ve shot at the Blue Ridge Mountain Club multiple times, Lake Norman and helped Kathryn Lily Interiors add to their portfolio of cleverly decorated interiors.
MBI was also responsible for the ProCor office space in Cornelius, NC. The furnishings and style are clean, modern and elegant with lots of open spaces and natural light. Ryan wanted to capture all of this in the images he took for MBI’s portfolio.
We work with architects, builders and interior designs as well as real estate agents. If you would like to see more of this work, you can!
